Re: Rep Retirement Lodge #187: Lazy End Days Of Summer
Good Morning Lodge!!
Sounds interesting. NPR had a thing on the increase of organ tx d/t opiod deathsYup -- some good features:
What have we learned from the recent bombings as far as trauma management/triage, palliative care in geriatric trauma, 2 lectures related to increases in gun violence, speakers from the NEOB and our transplant team on the rise in transplantable organs due to the rise in opioid overdose deaths, and managing TBI and spinal cord trauma with the new TBI guidelines.
I'm with you.
Huh, interesting. Would really be curious about what the causes would be for pockets of increases, that don't follow the overall trend. Of course, if your place specifically has just taken on hospitals in areas that are routinely more violent, then that would pretty much explain it.
Listening to something the other day which said the same thing. If you were to take out certain hot spots the numbers are down. Maybe they did that when they looked at stats.I may be speaking out of turn here, but I think the more violent places are getting more violent, where as the marginal places are cooling down, and there are more marginal places than violent places, therefore lowering the overall violent trend.....
Good Morning Lodge!!
